Part 5/9:
The Bloodstains: Evidence of Authenticity
One of the most compelling pieces of evidence in support of the Shroud's authenticity is the blood found on the cloth, which has been confirmed to be human in nature. Analysis shows it contains hemoglobin and human serum albumin, regulatory proteins present in blood. The bloodstains are consistent with the injuries described in New Testament accounts of Jesus' crucifixion, forming a coherent narrative that aligns with historical texts.
The scientific findings challenge assumptions regarding the Shroud being merely a medieval fabrication, as no dyes or pigments were detected in the fibers. The image's composition presents an enigma, with modern methods failing to replicate its creation.
